The Creek Indians faced significant displacement and loss of their ancestral lands due to land lotteries in Georgia during the early 19th century. These lotteries, established by the state government, allowed white settlers to acquire large tracts of land previously occupied by the Creeks, leading to forced removal and the erosion of their territory. The situation escalated, culminating in the Creek War of 1836-1837 and subsequent policies that facilitated their relocation to Indian Territory, now Oklahoma. This contributed to the broader pattern of Native American dispossession across the United States.

Is the lottery good?
it sometimes depends because you can lose alot of money on it but if you win you can win alot of cash. its more on luck.Another answer:In the US, lotteries are run by state governments as a system to raise money. Lotteries always take in more than they pay out. In many states, the profit is used to fund education; in others, the profit goes into the state's general revenue.Lotteries are a way for states to get additional income without raising taxes. Taxes are unpopular and politicians who advocate raising tax rates are frequently voted out of office. Lotteries are more politically acceptable than taxes because they are voluntary--you don't have to play the lottery. In this respect, lotteries are called "a painless tax".The primary criticisms of lotteries are based on ethical principles. Lotteries encourage people to spend money on a long shot rather than save and invest their money. Since lotteries are designed to pay out less than they take in, the people who play the lottery, on average, always lose. The lottery always offers a negative return on investment. Consequently, lotteries have been called "a tax on people who are bad at math".Other critics point to the fact that lotteries are particularly popular among people in lower income ranges. These are the people who can least afford to lose money on a speculative investment. It is said that lotteries are a tax on the poor: a regressive tax. Lotteries discourage disadvantaged people from saving and investing, with the result that they are never able to lift themselves or their children out of the cycle of poverty, ignorance and dependence.

What happened when John Quincy Adams supported the Creeks in treaty negotiations with the state of Georgia?
The result of President John Quincy Adams supporting the Creek Indian nation in treaty negotiations was the 1826 Treaty of Washington. However, regardless of this treaty the governor of Georgia at that time,George Troup, refused to go along with the provisions of that treaty that allowed the Creek Indians to remain on their small piece of land on the Alabama-Georgia border plus the Ocmulgee Old Fields. He forced the Creeks off this land by forcibly evicting them and the federal government under President John Quincy Adams and his federal troops backed off from federal intervention when confronted by the Georgia militia. The Creek Indians were forced to move west to Indian reservation lands west of the Mississippi River.
